Aroma Fragrance

Spices are separated from each other by their own taste. Without the smell, we can only feel the sour and sweet bitterness of coffee. The fragrance derived from brewing coffee can be distinguished by our taste, such as "flower scent", "wine" and other slightly different characteristics, and form the taste.

Body strength and consistency

Strength is a feeling, the feeling of coffee in your mouth! It is the combination of viscosity, weight, or bad feeling that the tongue can feel. The ideal coffee consistency range, such as the difference between complete milk and water. The strength of the coffee we feel is based on the complete extraction and dissolution of its oil during the cooking process. In principle, coffee from Indonesia has a thicker body than coffee from Central and South America. If you can't compare different kinds of coffee, you can try to add the same amount of milk respectively. Coffee with a solid taste can still maintain a high proportion of flavor after the milk is dilute.
